Members employ a multi-faceted investment strategy involving quantitative and qualitative analysis to produce investment pitches and construct a diversified portfolio. Our pitches include a presentation of thesis points supported by various financial models, including but not limited to discounted cash flow analysis, leveraged buyouts, merger models, and dividend discount models. The unique layout of these investment groups mirrors the format of financial institutions, promoting exposure to several asset classes for members to learn about. ​Groups are structured with a Desk Head who oversees prospective investments and facilitates team education. Following each pitch, active members and our Portfolio Committee votes on whether or not the investment should be included in our portfolio. All profits are reinvested into the fund or returned to members in the form of events and investing capital.
